I know we've all been at this for a looooong time, but it appears there are still many people who didn't get the memo when it comes to video meeting etiquette, so why not create a funny Top-10 Video Meeting Tips list or a fun Video Meeting Rules of the Road guide to remind everyone of some basic video meeting etiquette - after all, video meetings aren't going away.  

Include some more serious reminders and tips: Close all your other computer windows so you aren't tempted to multi-task; store your smart phone out of reach for the same reason; mute yourself when you're not speaking; say your name before you speak so people know where the mystery voice is coming from; make use of the icons to signal your support for someone or to raise a question. 

Then weave in some lighter rules: Beware of UFOs in the background (unidentified funny objects that may be highly embarrassing once they are identified); if your pet walks by be sure to introduce your pet or at least pass along our best wishes; maybe make sure you are dressed before the meeting starts?; put up a "Recording in Progress" sign on your home office door to ensure your shirtless brother-in-law doesn't stumble into the wrong room; make sure your lighting doesn't make you look like you're about to share a scary ghost story; although we all think you have an amazing forehead, please ensure your camera is positioned accordingly.   
 
And as you progress to working in a true hybrid workplace, consider creating a fun video/hybrid communication guidebook for all your employees and new hires as well.  

What "rule" would you make sure you'd include in a handbook? I'd love to hear your serious and not-so-serious suggestions!
